After an accident you may be tempted to sit back and let the insurance companies take care of everything. That’s what they’re paid for, right? Well, that decision could be a bad mistake. Insurance companies work as hard as they can to minimize or eliminate settlements for crash victims, which keeps more money in the insurance company’s pocket. If you don’t get the insurance money you’re entitled to, you could end up on the hook for thousands or even hundreds of thousands on car accident related costs. What you need is an automobile accident lawyer who is familiar with insurance policies and the way insurers negotiate, like the attorneys at Kennedy Law Group. We have years of experience battling with insurance companies and negligent drivers and we know what crash victims are entitled to. We work hard to ensure they get every dollar they deserve.
Here are a few of the car accident related expenses an automobile accident attorney may be able to recoup for you:
- Medical bills. There is likely a limit to how much your car insurance company will pay toward medical costs, but an automobile accident attorney may be able to access additional money for you from other insurance policies you or the negligent driver may hold. Furthermore, if an insurance company acts in bad faith and refuses to hold up their end of the insurance policy, accident victims and their attorneys might be able to go to court and demand an amount that exceeds insurance policy limits.
- Lost wages. If you’re out of work due to your accident, you deserve compensation for the pay you didn’t receive.
- Property damage. Your car may be totaled and you’ll want to get the most money possible for it, something a lawyer can help with. He or she may also be able to help you recover the cost of other items ruined in the crash, like cell phones, GPS units, and other items that may have been in the vehicle at the time of the accident.
There are a number of other expenses an automobile accident attorney may be able to recover on your behalf after studying your individual case.
